With summer just beginning, it's time for smoothly shaven legs for us ladies, but let's not forget the men, they need shaving tips too! So here are 3 simple shaving tips for both men AND women!  

1. Apply plenty of gel/shaving cream.
This may seem like a no-brainer, but it's important. Applying enough shaving cream really helps to get a nice, even and smooth shave. Lather up! 

2. Use a quality razor and change the blades regularly.
Invest in a good quality razor, nothing cheap and small. The more blades the better, and the more control you have with the razor the better. Also, remember to replace the blades after every 2-3 uses. This ensures a clean shave, less irritation and razor burn. 

3. Apply an alcohol-free aftershave or toner.
After your shower/shave applying an aftershave cream, lotion or toner is a must to keep your skin from reacting harshly. Something alcohol-free is necessary so you're not cringing in pain because of the burn! Soothe your skin with something hydrating and calming.
